Product recommendation
Traditionally a special sort of searing iron was used to caramelise the sugar.
Preparation steps
1.
Mix the cornflour with 3-4 tbsp milk. Bring the rest of the milk to the boil with the lemon peel and cinnamon.
2.
Beat the egg yolks with 75 g sugar until white and fluffy. Fold in the cornflour mixture. Pour the hot milk over the mixture through a sieve, then stir over hot water until thickened and creamy. Divide between 4 ramekins, allow to cool, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
3.
Shortly before serving, sprinkle the remaining sugar over the crema catalana. Use a chef's blowtorch to caramelise the sugar until golden.
